Confidence springs eternal – in the Cotswolds

“We currently have 16 properties under offer, 128% up on the same period last year when we had seven under offer, and we’re also preparing over 20 new properties for sale. Meanwhile, the number of prospective purchasers registering with us has almost doubled.

“With the lack of capital appreciation in houses over the past couple of years resulting in a much more stable residential market, the price expectations of both buyer and seller are much more closely aligned, making it easier to achieve a realistic market valuation that both parties are happy with.

“Fresh on the market and well prepared properties are achieving prices much closer to the asking price, and this is consequently speeding up the sales process.”
